Accidents at Work

Workers are nonetheless at risk of injury whenever they do duties near heavy machinery or hazardous materials, even though the majority of businesses frequently train their staff about safety and make an effort to uphold OSHA requirements. Particularly serious injuries from construction accidents can result in high hospital and medical expenditures as well as further expensive therapies, treatments, and other forms of rehabilitation after you leave the hospital.


In the event of a work-related injury, wounded employees are supposed to receive compensation for missed income and medical care. The motivation is for businesses to make sure that every employee can do their work safely. Businesses of all sizes—big and small—know that proactive investments in employee safety will result in significant financial savings. Paying for a worker's compensation claim is far more expensive than implementing preventive measures.


Every employer in Florida that has four or more employees is required to carry workers' compensation insurance by law. Different rules apply to construction companies, which are required to carry worker's compensation insurance even if they only have one employee.

What is Indemnity?

This workers' compensation benefit aids in your ability to replace lost wages. Temporary indemnity refers to the right to obtain benefits covering lost wages for a maximum of two years while you recuperate from the accident. You will earn the maximum compensation if you have a total disability, which implies you are unable to perform any employment. If you have a partial handicap, your doctor will allow you to perform "light duties," and you will only be eligible for a portion of the payment.
